Rayven: You're welcome. I'm glad you didn't waste 3 hours too 8u
I had my sleep tech tell me he wears contacts to bed and they supply his eyes with more oxygen.
I told him I wish I had contacts because I can't see my tv when I'm in bed.
I have to wear glasses just to watch something and I can't sleep with glasses on >Bu
It seems to be getting said more often these days xD
YOU FOOL
YOU ABSOLUTE FOOL
>:U
I remember being late to an appointment so I ran up the steps and when they took my blood pressure and stuff, my pulse was high. I forgot I ran, so I told them it was because I was anxious xD
I need to get exercise....I'm just constantly worn out and hurting and all I get told is to lose weight.
They're peanut and banana treats. They're soft and they have actual chunks of banana in them. They're pretty neat 8u
Hyde's up there in age, so I've been trying to find him soft food and soft treats.
Tough and clumsy xD
I'm always hurting myself u,B
I get told it's because I need to be more careful and pay attention to what I'm doing.
>Bu
If I casually reach for something, my fingernails get caught in them and get bent backwards.
I can't be any more careful or pay any closer attention than reaching for something >Bu
I don't know why, it just creeps me out - cold soup xD
My mom makes rice for me sometimes with butter and sugar. I ate some the other night. I also love rice pudding 8u
My dad made Spanish rice once and asked me how much I wanted and I said I didn't like rice and he said "What kind of Mexican are you U8<"
Mynah: I will eat spicy salmon roll when I get it every once in a while. That's some more rice I eat u8

I have a jar that I pour pickle juice in, and then I put food in it, like cold unfried bacon or black fungus. Yesterday I didn't have anymore things to put in it, and it smelled good to me, so I used it to cook rice and some basil garlic turkey sausages. It was tasty rice.

What is pickle juice, the kind that you have? Is it fermented salty/briny water or do you put vinegar in it?

Yes.
Basically, it's the juice from all the pickles I have. Some are brine and some are vinegar. There's sauerkraut juice and kimchi juice and Persian mini pickle juice, and some dill pickled carrot juice. Also some flavour from duck and turkey bacon.
Moi, it GIVES me cramps, in the insides. LOL What flavour is the bottled stuff?

Well, it's different from like the pickle juice you get from a jar of pickles.
It's designed for people to be able to drink it - so it shouldn't make anyone sick like regular pickle juice would.
I made the mistake of drinking regular pickle juice and it messed my stomach up.
These drinks don't u8
This is the kind I buy from the store:

Pickle juice is usually really healthy since it's fermented. (We don't call it pickle juice here, so I just had to confirm we were talking about the same thing lol.)
It can mess up your gut if you introduce a whole bunch of new bacteria at once, so it's not a good idea to just drink a whole bunch at once instead of introducing your gut to it little by little. If you start with a small amount and gradually increase the amount you intake, your gut adjusts to it and also benefits from it.
I'm suspicious of store bought pickle juice because there's probably something in it to prevent it from spoiling. Fermented food is pretty delicate. If it's made in small batches and sold at the store (basically not meant to be made in bulk stock to sit on the shelves for ages) that's when I'd trust it.

I get my brine pickles at the farmers market.
Polysorbate 80 scares me. Too bad you can't find this one.

The farmer's market is the safer place to get pickles. I personally don't think pickles need anything other than salt, water and natural seasonings. That's how they're made at home and that's how they should be. I don't like vinegar in pickles either because they kill the bacteria that's needed for fermentation. Vinegar is good for cleaning pickle bottles instead, and for cleaning any glass containers you use to ferment other things too, like kombucha.
